The Obagi Tretinoin Cream 0.05% is a prescription topical skin treatment that works deep into the skin to treat acne, scarring, discolouration, and ageing skin. This concentration is ideal for those recommended a stronger intensity of tretinoin. 
 
Tretinoin penetrates the skin to increase collagen production, combating excess pigmentation and treating acne at the source. 
 
Obagi Tretinoin is also available in 0.05% Gel, 0.025% Cream, or 0.1% Cream—all these formulations are fragrance-free. 
 
Tretinoin is the generic name for synthetic, first-generation all-trans-retinoic acid.  It is a prescription drug approved to treat acne and in a few other FDA-approved products (which does not apply to our tretinoin products) as an adjunctive agent to treat fine facial wrinkling for patients who use comprehensive skin care and sun avoidance programs.
